URLs for Web Viewer links can be generated manually or by a scripted process, without opening the Unity Client to create them, as long as the Unity Client is configured to allow unencrypted dashboard URLs.
Unencrypted URLs pass parameter information in plain text and may expose sensitive information to anyone who can see the URL.
Information on configuring the Unity Client and Web Viewer to accept unencrypted dashboard or report URLs is found in the following sections:
Valid Web Viewer URLs contain the base URL and several parameters specific to the dashboard or report being viewed, some of which are required. The base URL of the Web Viewer is http://[server name]/[virtual directory]/Viewer.aspx, where [server name] is the name of the machine where the Web Viewer is installed and [virtual directory] is the name of the virtual directory the Web Viewer was installed to. For example, http://Example-Server/DashboardViewer/Viewer.aspx.
If the Web Viewer was configured to use an HTTPS binding, the base URL must begin with https://. The name of the virtual directory must match the configured Application Name for the Web Viewer.
Several general parameters can be included on the Web Viewer URL, some of which are required. Additional input parameters can also be included. See:
